If you haven't heard about birthday pinatas, or you just never had a childhood, its this big container made of cloth, papier-mâché or pottery that's used to smash to a thousand bits for fun. It's often filled with candy and it's a kids birthday party main event. Pinatas had originated in China in the 13th century and it was moved to Italy by Marco Polo. It was used at rituals and celebrations to this day. I got one too.
In my opinion, I do think that it's quite a stupid idea considering your a 7 year-old kid blindfolded throwing a bat somewhere. The worst part is that, you're blindfolded. When you smash it you don't know if it opened so everyone's just running around trying to pick up candy and you're still blindfolded, confused and candiless. (Please don't questions me about candiless.)
